Subject: 26.1; cperl-mode: Syntax "package NAME { ... }" not recognized
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2020 20:35:49 +0200

How to reproduce in emacs -Q:

Enter the following code in a buffer under cperl-mode:
--------------------------
package Foo {
    sub bar { ...; }
}
sub baz { ...; }
--------------------------

Then mark the whole buffer and run M-x indent-buffer.
"sub baz" gets indented, as if in a continued statement.
Also, in imenu, sub bar is not attributed to package Foo.

Background: As of Perl 5.14, the package declaration can have the syntax
"package NAME BLOCK" (as in this example) and also "package NAME VERSION
BLOCK", where VERSION is a stringified Perl version object.  In
addition, after the end of the block (sub baz in the example above), the
package from before package Foo is valid again.

I don't have a comprehensive patch ready.
